Beautifully captured as always AS. But why do people persist with painting aeroplanes blue? That colour is already taken - by the sky.

Is that the boat people I can see waving from their tents at Topside?:E

Nice flyby!!

Foam.... The only one I know in that company is RG

Frisby....blue on aircraft certainly is a challenge. I had a commission to paint a Skywest F50. Their colour scheme is sky blue and cloud white. I contrasted it with a stormy dark sky with Rottnest Island below. Bob Tait's Pacer is another I put a stormy sky behind his blue and white aircraft.

A37575....it was painted before the recent new arrivals,so,they are probably locals going fishing.

nitpicker....it is a flyby,because to paint it aligned with the runway would put the painting 'unbalanced' due to too much land on one side and too much ocean on the other.

Yes I see. Nice painting. :ok:
